Endangered Zeldin praises convention as GOP unity bid
New York congressman Lee Zeldin, facing a toss up re election, attends Cleveland's GOP convention while other endangered Republicans stay home. He argues the event advances national security and economic growth, supports Trump despite reservations, and aims to unite a party split by the primary contest. Zeldin, an Army veteran and the sole Jewish Republican, cites district Trump support and press opportunities as reasons to participate.
